[soft onyx]

I almost hit d3 last season

[proper stratus]

Logic: diamond is bad and champ is a bit better

[soft onyx]

can anyone help me ?

[dusky fiber]

What do u need? This server is for tipps not for carry

[soft onyx]

Didn’t ask for carry

[soft onyx]

I asked for help getting to champ meaning tips you can chill

[dusky fiber]

What do u need then?

[soft onyx]

help

I can’t tell you directly what I need

I need help there’s a reason I’m in diamond

[dusky fiber]

What do u struggle withV

[rain mica]

[soft onyx]

I’m not sure

I’m going to sleep good night

[barren plaza]

idk how the hell to use this lfg channel

how do i message someone

thats posting

[coarse iron]

im plat 2 can anyone help me like i need i dia 2-3

[cyan sage]

please help me to learn how to air dribble

[dusky fiber]

if u are new to air dribbles: most important thing with air dribbles is the set up, if u can do that right u can get good tries, in general take your time with the set up at first. 1. try to get already on the ground in a good line so u dont go crazy left right before touching the ball. 2. try to get the ball as high as possible without it touching the ceiling. 3. u want to toch the ball when it has that up-movement and above the corner, otherwise the ball either goes to straight up the wall or too far away. 4. try to get in a similar speed as the ball. 5. At first, AS SOON as u touch the ball jump, rlly as soon as u touch it. When u focus on all these steps u should be already be very close to the ball after the set up. Then u just need to air roll in a straight position and try out the dribbles. Also try doing it in freeplay. Training packs can be good but there the set up is done for u and u might be able to actually dribble then but cant use it in game as u dont know how to set up

[patent sinew]

Im Plat 2 , can anyone suggest any maps that can help me?

[karmic lance]

in what

defence, aerials, shots etc... ?

[foggy canopy]

i need some defense/ shadow defence maps diamond levle

[karmic lance]

yes give me a sec

5CCE-FB29-7B05-A0B1

[foggy canopy]

cheers

[unborn moon]

Bro just blocked me cuz I’m a few divisions below him without even tryin a casual game

[karmic lance]

does it work for u

[unborn moon]

Crazy

[patent sinew]

Yeah all hose

[karmic lance]

C7E0-9E0B-B739-A899

[karmic lance]

aerials

7028-5E10-88EF-E83E

[karmic lance]

shots

[foggy canopy]

yeah it hit about 18/20 of them, its a little hard im only plat 2

[static leaf]

do people who use powerslide on square and jump on x use claw? like firstkiller mackzy etc

[dusky fiber]

Idk what exactly u mean, i also have it like this, usually u can press both buttons at the same time without much issues, or do u have another question?

[austere nexus]

whats the best time of the season to start placements?

[neon dirge]

i do

its pretty comfy if you get used to it

[austere nexus]

am i the only one who use back button for boost

[neon dirge]

probably not

[proper stratus]

Find another m8 then lol?

[warm breach]

This is the best maps for control 7c69-47ac-ed4a-fodb and 573c-Bfbb-4c17-d278

[warm breach]

I would start placement Monday or if you think you can beat a higher rank then you where last season I would start today

[neon dirge]

like 2 months after the season started lololol

i just play them when the season starts idrc

[austere nexus]

lmao

[austere nexus]

yeah im diamond 1 as of last season i think i could just do them now and if i get plat 3 id just get out of it again

[last flare]

It doesn't really matter unless you were 1600+ the previous season

[woven dagger]

This is rocket league

[cyan wind]

Can someone coach me?

[cyan sage]

Can some1 coach me for free? Im stuck at plat 2 now i went down to gold 2 I play in europe and i have a mic

[static basin]

Flip reset

[cyan sage]

i use y to ps and b to jump and a is my bost

[uncut hedge]

the speed of the ball depends on how you shoot the ball right

[cyan sage]

thanks man

[maiden root]

how play 1s

i got c3 yesterday

lost it cuz i had a headache but i’ll get it back today

i js been having trouble not selling

[uncut hedge]

my rotations are stupid help

[cyan sage]

your position on the feild depends on how you shoot

ex. if your on your side dont just try to make a shot on their goal, instead do a soft touch and dribble the ball closer then make a shot. or if your on 2s or 3s pass it to a teammate closer and follow up on the play

[buoyant mural]

i keep getting 150 ping how can i get lower ping

[cyan sage]

depends on what you play on

if ur on pc us a ethernet cable

[buoyant mural]

how to get that

[cyan sage]

walmart

or just move your router closer to you

[buoyant mural]

guess that helps

thanks

[austere marlin]

Anyone got any tips on how to hit a tornado flick

[loud latch]

Hello, my silver 2 friend needs coaching, dm me for more info about him and if you want to train him i will give you his discord

[rustic gull]

If he’s in silver the best thing he can do is just play the game

[proper stratus]

20-30 degrees

[unreal halo]

can someone give me tips on speed flipping

[stable whale]

Any gc3+ on nae here?

[unreal halo]

in the speed flip training packs it gives me no time to gain momentum so idk how people do it

[lyric rune]

how do i get good at aerials/air rolling?

[unreal halo]

ok thanks np

[merry wren]

bro i was plat 3 last season and now ive dropped down to plat 1

[vale harbor]

start of the season everyone is lower rank

[merry wren]

no but i did my placement matches and ive dropped to plat 1

[vale harbor]

you'll gain it back over the next few weeks

[merry wren]

idk why

[vale harbor]

when the season resets, everyone loses MMR, so the SSL's will get back to their rank first opening up the mmr they were just in for the gc3's to move back into and so on down the ranks

[livid wren]

can somebody give me tips on how to get better at air car control (while airroll), like how can i move right/left/back/forward mid air

[onyx jackal]

Need help learning speed flips

[vale harbor]

Baby Bonez on youtube has some good tutorials, basically learn how to turn from one position (car facing forward)

[vale harbor]

23BF-DD84-BBA6-AE0B - just practice once you have the basic movement down (flip pushing your stick up and slightly to the side, cancel exact opposite side to where you flip)

[vale harbor]

also hold powerslide when you land so if you do mess up you wont veer off to the side

[onyx jackal]

I keep practicing but my car always looks down while I do it every time

[vale harbor]

probs need to cancel quicker or flip less forward

[onyx jackal]

aight ty

[sinful nymph]

Use directional air roll

[onyx jackal]

also is that musty speed flip training kick off

[vale harbor]

nah its a different one, the musty one requires a perfect speedflip but this one just requires a decent one so is beter for learning

[onyx jackal]

The whole way or the last part and I do my speed flips right so do I have to use the left or right directional air roll

[onyx jackal]

ty again

[sinful nymph]

Which ever you prefer

If you flip left use left air roll if you flip right use right

[vale harbor]

directional air roll imo is less controlled and its an extra button to push so complicates it but give it a shot and it may click for you, preference really

[onyx jackal]

aight ty both ill keep grinding

[sinful nymph]

Just do rings map if you need to learn air roll

[onyx jackal]

I normally use joystick air roll

[sinful nymph]

You can’t speed flip without using directional air roll

[onyx jackal]

Ye I have them binded

Square and circle

[vale harbor]

you 100% can

[sinful nymph]

How do you play like that

[sinful nymph]

How

[mortal quail]

You can speedflip with normal air roll

[vale harbor]

im not sure which part of the speedflip you think you need it for so idk how to answer how lol

[onyx jackal]

Boost r1 /free air roll is l1 with drift/ x is jump /triangle is cam it works well

[vale harbor]

i have the same binds, they just make sense right?

[onyx jackal]

Ikr

Boost needs to be close to drive

[sinful nymph]

Bro I just use default and LB an RB are air roll left and righ

[onyx jackal]

That's what everyone uses

[cyan sage]

not really

[onyx jackal]

You cant fast aerial like that though

[cyan sage]

you deff can

[onyx jackal]

You cant hold jump and boost

[vale harbor]

this is also a popular bind but having boost on R1 means you can boost and jump at the same time a bit easier, you can obvs fat finger x and circle but theres less chance of messing it up

[cyan sage]

your hands are either tiny, or you havent learned the art of fat fingering

[sinful nymph]

I play claw

[vale harbor]

not to judge but ew

[onyx jackal]

I honestly till now never understood claw

[cyan sage]

claw has nothing to do with it, i play your same binds pretty much

[onyx jackal]

Too much effort

[cyan sage]

thats literally less effort

doing 2 tasks with the same action is less effort

[vale harbor]

i use air roll right for majority of my aerials and fat finger x and circle so i can jump and instatly air roll

[onyx jackal]

All I do is press x r1 and r2 with different fingers that's much easier

[cyan sage]

all i do is press jump and boost at the same time

[onyx jackal]

While fat fingering

[cyan sage]

yup

my hands are normal sized, couldnt imagine having tiny hands

[onyx jackal]

Doesn't fat finger tire

[cyan sage]

not if your hands arent tiny

[vale harbor]

its defo just preference but if you want both air roll left and right bound and you use circle to boost, you either have to put air roll loeft on L1 with powerslide which isnt ideal as free air roll is better with powerslide or have one air roll on bumper and anothe on button which is weird

[cyan sage]

I just put powerslide and freeair roll on x

jump and boost on a b respectively

[vale harbor]

yeah thats decent tbf

[onyx jackal]

How would that work

[cyan sage]

diagonal flip cancel doesnt require air roll directional at all

[onyx jackal]

Cause I lowkey only have directional air roll for half flips

[vale harbor]

using free air roll just makes any corrections (if you flip too far or not enough) a bit easier

[cyan sage]

speedflips are easier with directional, but it isnt nessecary at all

it only helps with getting the intitial diagonal flip angle to cancel

I speedflip to the left using left air roll, but to the right I tend to just use free air roll

[onyx jackal]

If so I'll just remove right air roll and put score board there cause I don't want score board on the d pad

[cyan sage]

I put scoreboard on the share button, cause im not on console

[vale harbor]

put it on the share button

[cyan sage]

he's on console

[onyx jackal]

I'm console

[vale harbor]

oh

[cyan sage]

get a pc, skill issue

[vale harbor]

^

[cyan sage]

pc's cheap rn

[onyx jackal]

I have 1

[cyan sage]

💀

[onyx jackal]

I just like playing console

[vale harbor]

do you hate frames or summin

[cyan sage]

must be one shit pc then

bros clocking in 15fps on rl

[onyx jackal]

no I'm used to input delay

[cyan sage]

insanity

[onyx jackal]

I can't even wave dash on pc

[cyan sage]

bro likes being bottlenecked by hardware

[onyx jackal]

The timings so weird

[cyan sage]

the timing is... on time

[onyx jackal]

On console wave dash timing make more sens

[sinful nymph]

Isn’t it the same thing

[cyan sage]

the timing is the same, you just have to input it early for delay

[onyx jackal]

Console has input delay and lower fps changing the timing

[sinful nymph]

Wouldn’t that make it worse?

[onyx jackal]

In a way yes

but input delay just feels good

[sinful nymph]

I guess if you are use to it

[onyx jackal]

how would u correct with free air roll tho

[merry wren]

any tips on how to get out of plat?

[sinful nymph]

Learn the essentials instead of asking how to flip reset

[cyan sage]

ballchase and learn how to hit the ball

[merry wren]

bro i dont flip reset

ik how to hit the ball bro

[cyan sage]

ok, so ballchase

[sinful nymph]

My fault

[merry wren]

but if i ball chase them my other teammate with commit aswell

[sinful nymph]

Honestly just get a dedicated 2nd and use comms to not double commit, if not the idk

[merry wren]

what essentials?

[sinful nymph]

Hit the ball properly

Learn backboard touches

Basic dribbles

Know when to and when to not go

[merry wren]

i can dribble decently well

[sinful nymph]

That’s 1 less thing you have to worry about

[cyan sage]

well you can hit the ball, you should just score before tm8 gets a chance to commit?

[cyan sage]

bro cursed him with duo queue, unlucky, perma stuck champ 1 😭

[sinful nymph]

Ong

[merry wren]

ye but then if i do then they miss like a simple save or they just pass the other team right in front of net

[cyan sage]

Class Change : Duo Queuer
Nerfs:
-80% Learning Speeds in gamesense
-80% ability to adapt around new plays
Buffs:
x3 Copium intake
80% toxicity increase

ill add to it later, it'll be my new copy paste

[onyx jackal]

Lowkey tho learning flip reset is fun I just don't attempt it in ranked

[topaz swan]

why are the air roll left and air roll right better instead of normal air roll on kbm

[cyan sage]

depends what you're using them for, but on kbm you have so many binds theres no reason not to give yourself that ability

air roll directional allows you to move on a different axis than normal air roll, so you have a bit more movement, not really nessecary tho

[topaz swan]

ye i use air roll and its easier imo than air roll left and right

[cyan sage]

It's the mods that warn, just concierge that it goes through

I got warned yesterday for offering coaching here, it is what it is

rocket league discord moment

F

[austere marlin]

Keep deleting my messages

[austere marlin]

Be careful you might be warned

Bro I was joking 😂

[native coral]

ok

[dusky fiber]

shouldnt rlly effect your road much, default air roll is also fine

[uneven pelican]

hello, i am d2, i know how to kinda air dribble, ik to speed flip, basic mechs are down, idk how to flip reset, i am kbm player, i derank most of the times cuz of trash teammates 💀 , any help on how i can improve and go to champ ?

[mortal quail]

Diamond: Stop tilt queueing, give your teammate space, get better at punishing your opponents. This can be done with good shooting and reads. Starting defending off backboard and get better at doing it. See the enemy up high, go backboard. Get better at basic aerials and wall touches as these can be vital. Get better at offense without sacrificing defense

[cyan sage]

Thx for me too

[lethal comet]

HOW TO KBM LIKE HOW?!

[twilit dagger]

I need help with 1v1 i can't play without raging a lot at the point that i brake things. But i need to do 1v1 to improve, i tried to listen to music, remove chat, but i can't seem to find inner peace

[mortal quail]

Try asking people to 1v1 in discords and stuff
Just in private matches

[twilit dagger]

Mmmm, it could work, but i'm affraid to still rage even in private...

[subtle notch]

Lol me to

What’s your rank in 1s

[onyx jackal]

Find a duo and don't go for plays your know you can't win

[mortal quail]

If you rage even in a call just chilling
Don't play 1s
Its not gonna improve you

[buoyant mural]

guys does playing with 20 fps low settings no stretched or play with 40 fps with streched res

[twilit dagger]

Yeah, but i don't know how to explain, but 1v1 can improve me. I need to surpass that barrier that make me rage

[buoyant mural]

[twilit dagger]

Hey

[buoyant mural]

[buoyant mural]

im silver and 50 percent of my games i hit air dribbles 💀

[twilit dagger]

I mean, sometime i can do a little aerial from the ground, but i can't on the wall

[buoyant mural]

the problem is my fps and ping

[subtle notch]

Yea sure

[buoyant mural]

they are trash

[subtle notch]

Bro is capping silver can’t air dribble

[buoyant mural]

i hit a fake air dribble with a pinch today

my fps sucks thats why i cant rank up

[subtle notch]

Yea ok

[buoyant mural]

i play on 20 💀

[twilit dagger]

[twilit dagger]

yeah

[rustic gull]

Lmk if you need help with mechanics i can come chill in a priv match eu

[twilit dagger]

[merry wren]

should i learn any mechs to get out of plat 3?

[mortal quail]

End of the day, its a video game
If you aren't having fun its not gonna be good on the long run

[buoyant mural]

bro i play on 30

what do you think

[flint hatch]

im plat 💀

[versed topaz]

Grind instead of asking for someone to boost you

[soft onyx]

When did I do that?

Never asked for a boost

[versed topaz]

That's what your message looks like it says

[cyan sage]

what’s the best angle for ur camera

[soft onyx]

It says help

Not boost

[cyan sage]

Anybody have any tips for dribbiling

[dusky fiber]

On ground or air dribbles?

[onyx jackal]

How do I get better at 1s

[rain summit]

by playing it

[cyan sage]

ground

[onyx jackal]

I do and I'm still not good

[cyan sage]

anybody D3 or above willing to coach me I dont have a mic and im on playstation.

I am not the greatest i mostly just need help with rotation and ground play

[onyx jackal]

Watch leth Road to ssl 2023 for rotation and for ground play learn dribbles and flick

[cyan sage]

thanks

what rank are you @onyx jackal

[onyx jackal]

why does that matter

[cyan sage]

just wondering

[onyx jackal]

got placed plat 2

[marsh matrix]

@cyan sage read private buddy

[cyan sage]

oh im plat 3 in 2s and gold 3 in 3s

[onyx jackal]

nice

[cyan sage]

read what?

[marsh matrix]

@cyan sage messages???

[cyan sage]

oh ok

[modest tusk]

How do really high ranked people have such quick and precise car control?

[mortal quail]

Having 3k hours

[modest tusk]

Whenever i meet obvious smurfs the car tweaks and turning speed is crazy fast and detailed

I have about 4k hours myself

And im still ass in comparison

[mortal quail]

Probably just trained differently or have better settings

[modest tusk]

Like i cant even replicate the speed, i train a lot and grind as much as i can, and as good as i may be while peaking, it plainly seems impossible in a way

[mortal quail]

A lot of small things make a difference in this game, its just about fine tuning I guess

[modest tusk]

Even high gc2s are plainly superior in movement, if my gamesense and predictions keep up, they just respond and adjust super quick, as if their game runs faster

And i doubt my pc has any sorta delay

May be reaction time

But i should atleast be able to somewhat compete like low gc2 atleast, aint that old yet

[mortal quail]

Doubt your reaction time is any slower than a Gc2
Its probably just due to a confidence issue

[modest tusk]

Past season i made my way towards high gc1, maybe like 4-5 wins away but the gap is huge

My progress so slow compared to the hours i put in

[mortal quail]

Ignore the amount of hours

[modest tusk]

Well, ive been so far and aint stopping

[mortal quail]

Just what is your goal for this game

[modest tusk]

Just embarassing to play so much and so little to show

[mortal quail]

Isn't your peak gc2

[modest tusk]

I want to be comfortable gc3

No, only high gc1

I tried really hard this season, i maybe got to 1550

I do play scrims with higher ranked people to improve gamesense but the factor is speed is my limiting factor

[mortal quail]

Its probably nothing to do with speed and everything to do with style

I got to 1500 but I was being outsped like yourself. I changed the way I played and actually kept up. If I better mechs I could probably reach gc2

I didn't improve my gamesense at all, just changed how I wanted to play

[modest tusk]

?

What net

Ah yes, that may also be another issue

But like, mena players also have like 90-150 ping and still get super good

My ping supposedly is good, but i feel like the ball and my car position stutters or teleports sometimes

Not always, on bad days

[mortal quail]

Mena players are just super aggro with 100% ego

Si

[marsh matrix]

@mortal quail bro is defending RL but RL its death when smurfs train platinums and golds like diamonds🤣

[mortal quail]

Because it's more enjoyable than playing the game

[marsh matrix]

Nice work man, in the past i was playing serius to get rank, now i stop to play because all my tm8s never touch the trainings

[mortal quail]

Dm me

Or click the link

[modest tusk]

Tommorow after work ill go buy that damn lan cable and see if that helps

[mortal quail]

Nah

I'm just tryna find a way to filter out dms

I tend to miss them

[modest tusk]

Yeah, everything is bad if one is to ask you

[mortal quail]

LOL

[modest tusk]

Anyways, cya till next season makes me ragequit, thanks ero

[mortal quail]

Alr good luck

[static basin]

Flip reset

[naive lily]

lf a half decent diamond

[onyx jackal]

Can someone join a priv match with me and see what's wrong with my speed flips

Also do u need to hold the flip cancel through the whole way

been practing for 2 hours only hit 1

Speed flips don't take 200 hours to learn lmao

I know people who learned it quick

Under 10 hours

How much did it take for u to learn it

I'm asking questions cause I think I'm doing it wrong

You'd think I watched them

Your making a big deal out of nothing

I'm pretty sure I followed the youtube tutorials well but I'm still doing something wrong that's why I asked for help if u can't help please don't argue

[polar sage]

Ngl i br clapping gc3 no speed flip

U i dont ever speed flip stg i dont even know how to

[onyx jackal]

I mainly play 1s so it's gonna be more useful than 2s ig

[polar sage]

Whats hr 1s rank

[onyx jackal]

I just play 1s casual I don't think I ever played ranked except when I first started playing

[polar sage]

Oh well was just doing that also

Bc i gtg somwhere today and tmrw so been playing 1s

Been being toxic snd ppl think im mad

So its been fun

[hybrid agate]

I hit the crossbar a lot does anyone have any tips or training packs to help me?

[vale harbor]

if youre hitting it cus you aim for the top of the net, just aim lower. if not just jump sooner to avoid hitting it too high, you only need to make a small correction so really focus on your shots in game and it should help

[hybrid agate]

Thank you

Yeah sometimes I focus on hitting the perfect shot instead of actually makingng the shot

[vale harbor]

yeah having good accuracy is good but trying too hard to place the shot often ends up in missing, if you mentally split the net into 4 (2x2) and then aim for the centre of each quadrant you should still be accurate enough to get it past defenders without going to over board with placement

^thats obvs a rough rule, not always that simple but if you're goig top right from a little distance away then it might help

[knotty crane]

POV me, a complete beginner, deciding to take a look at this channel and immediately not understanding 85% of the words im reading lol

[vale harbor]

what words dont you understand lmao @knotty crane

[rain summit]

things like "rotation", "teamplay", "placement" probably

[knotty crane]

Pretty much

Ik what rotation is

But is placement referring to rank or position or what

[vale harbor]

placement is just where youre putting the ball in the net

so if you go for placement over power, you're being more accurate instead of hitting the ball hard

[knotty crane]

Well, I think I have to actually get the ball in the net before I can worry about that /s

Lmao

[vale harbor]

yeah for sure haha

[knotty crane]

From what I’ve seen playing casuals, my ground striking game is fine, but my aerials are god awful

[vale harbor]

dont even worry about aerials until diamond probs

you can get gc with solid ground/wall play

[knotty crane]

The problem I felt most was

My aerial lack of skill led to shots I should’ve been able to save

On the ground I can pop it and center it halfway across the field but if I’m in the goal and the ball is coming at me not on the ground? Nope I miss

[vale harbor]

you can cover the whole net with a double jump

[knotty crane]

That’s what I thought lol

I somehow miss the easiest saves if it isn’t on the ground

[vale harbor]

i wouldnt class jumping at something below the bar as an aerial but i guess that is the very basics of aerialing so

defo work on that

[neon mesa]

how can i get out of low gc2?

[knotty crane]

I was gonna look for some teammates to practice with but all the Lfg’s are plat dia or champ lol

Meanwhile I haven’t even unlocked ranked

[vale harbor]

just spend time in freeplay and you'll improve quicker

[neon mesa]

2s or 3s

for improvements?

[vale harbor]

2s will improve you more than 3s

1s will do more than both

[neon mesa]

i hate 1s

[vale harbor]

freeplay (if youre a low rank) is even better. you just need to learn to hit the ball consistently, youtube some freeplay drills and practice them and add stuff to make them harder once youre decent

[neon mesa]

u saying gc is low rank?

[vale harbor]

me too but thats the price you gotta pay for max improvement at higher rnks lol

[vale harbor]

no that was aimed at voxtrem

[neon mesa]

OH

okay got it

[vale harbor]

im also stuck high gc1/low gc2 so i feel you're pain

well not stuck but thats where i currently am

[neon mesa]

i mean i have friends that are low gc3 and idk how they got there like so fast

[vale harbor]

watch their replays and see what they do differently

its probably a mix of consistency and taking more control at higher speeds

[autumn charm]

Can anyone help me in a call?

[warm breach]

What type of player are you offensive wise

[neon mesa]

This chat escalated real fast

[grizzled jacinth]

Speedflipping on keyboard is pain

Rocket League on keyboard is pain. Is kbm better than just the kb?

[thick cargo]

I assume so

[neon mesa]

nah im doing it consistant

[warm breach]

Well for 2s I can say when I’m higher gc there is a lot of stuff that can bring big improvement such as pre jumping more taking more time defensively instead of offensively but with you being a air player I would start dummy plays bc they really won’t expect dummy plays in gc2

[neon mesa]

bruh what u want to see? nothing important

[grizzled jacinth]

Hybrid?

[warm breach]

Ya it’s where you play kb and roller but you can switch like mid game

[autumn charm]

Can anyone help me in a vc?

Yes I’m very mental I have 5k hours I’ve lost my mind it’s easy as hell if you have fast hands tho

[warm breach]

Pm me

[neon mesa]

thats hella a lot

[storm onyx]

can someone teach me how to triple reset

[neon mesa]

i have around 1k and my peak was gc2

[cyan sage]

Is a guy german

[warm breach]

Damn my peak was 2680 in 2s in ssl

[cyan sage]

I love Psyonix

[autumn charm]

Done

[neon mesa]

2600??

[faint sail]

If anyone wants help learning in game playstyle or mechanics anywhere from air dribbling to quad flip resets in a PM, DM me NAE.

[neon mesa]

hours right?

[grizzled jacinth]

NAE

[warm breach]

Ya

[grizzled jacinth]

Would be nice if I got a console or a better pc

Rocket league wont log in 90% of the time

[warm breach]

And I’m a Nae player but main me servers bc I’m from Israel

[grizzled jacinth]

Weh😭

[grizzled jacinth]

Woah Israel? Thats cool

[warm breach]

Thank you proud of my Jewish heritage so I play where I can speak my language

[grizzled jacinth]

Quite a funny coincidence that some guy mentioned something german earlier

[warm breach]

🤣🤣I saw that but I just laughed

[grizzled jacinth]

lmafamao.

How the heck do you get hybrid to work though

[warm breach]

3rd party but what do u use steam or u Xbox or sum

[grizzled jacinth]

Epic games😭

I meant as in gameplay btw not setting it up

[warm breach]

Oh umm

[grizzled jacinth]

Im never trying that personally

[warm breach]

Well so let’s say for example I’m better at flicking on pc I would switch and how I would do that is by pressing my drive button witch is linked to my drive button on kbm then I will throw the controller and fast as I can go to the kbm

[grizzled jacinth]

That

[warm breach]

But keep in mind even when my hands are off the roller I’m still driving

[bright beacon]

I'm about to de-rank to gold in 3s pls kill me

[warm breach]

Dam Brodie

[grizzled jacinth]

I think you should be studied

Your brain

Anyone's brain who uses hybrid for that matter should be studied

[bright beacon]

The only strat that seems to work is playing permanently as third man

[warm breach]

Ik I need a therapist most time I’ve stayed on the games was 18 hours ima legit psycho

[bright beacon]

The second I leave that spot there is no third man and ezgoal for opponent

[grizzled jacinth]

Wow. I remember playing a specific Geometry dash level for like 7 hrs straight

[grizzled jacinth]

Communication?

[grizzled jacinth]

can you do a psycho though

[warm breach]

Ya ik you was locked

[bright beacon]

I keep chat off and am soloqing so

[grizzled jacinth]

Time machine was the name i think

[warm breach]

I have only like 2 times 1 was a no bounce other was pure luck

[gusty crest]

but can you beat me in bobble league

[grizzled jacinth]

I've been led to believe that this is very terrible unless you're queuing 1s. I think you need a teammate in discord or something

[grizzled jacinth]

I can't even beat anti-login mode on rocket league how can I challenge you (who are you? )

I feel like if I had rocket league on steam I would have less trouble logging in

[gusty crest]

its in the discord activities

we need to be in the same call tho

[dire bear]

Can I get a coach? I need help getting a good score, haven't gotten my new rank yet

[zinc jetty]

Yo y’all got any tips for hoops?

[slate halo]

how do you get to diamond

ive been struggling for getting diamond for months

[slate halo]

ye just think of it as normal rl and get better at aierls like mabye find a traning pack or smth.

[hushed smelt]

Anyone looking for coaching if so DM me

[dapper raptor]

if you're hard stuck plat it would probably be safe to say a combo of doing training packs to learn how to hit the ball hard (like hitting it right after the bounce and hitting it with your nose) beyond that just keep playing and you'll get more comfortable with your car control. but most plats don't quite know how to boom the damn thang

[still radish]

can anyone please coach me me im diamond 1

if you can dm me

[blissful zodiac]

Any tips for getting better at aerials? (Gold 2)

[warm breach]

Training packs

[grizzled jacinth]

Oh. I barely touch those.

[plush cape]

Hey anyone can tell me when I should allow myself to use car cam (gold 1)

[grizzled jacinth]

Ground dribbling/aligning yourself for boost when rotating. I think

[gusty crest]

I'm not extremely good at the game but the only times I think you should have car cam off is when you have the ball on your car and when you want to see where you are going

[bright beacon]

I have deranked to gold in 3s I want to die

[plush cape]

How about when I’m pushing the ball

[plush cape]

Can’t play 3s lol it’s pure chaos I only play 1s

[bright beacon]

My favorite part of gold 3s is not being able to actually play, but I do get a lovely show of watching my teammates double commit and whiff the shit out of every aerial

[plush cape]

What ?

1s are the best games

No teammates to f*ck your game (i’m gold 1 in 1s and silver 2 in 2s and unranked in 3s)

[weary oyster]

I'm stuck in champ in 2s I have been for 2 seasons now I want to be gc any tips ?

[plush cape]

Learn how to psycho

At least their less raging

[weary oyster]

[left sonnet]

dont go for shit u can barley hit

[flint hatch]

I think I need to learn speed flip and wave dashes

[cyan sage]

shit idek about "be able to hit the ball", more like "be able to hit the ball 30% of the time or more"

[left sonnet]

i use to se plats go for wall ariels and shit and miss completley then free goal for other team

[cyan sage]

for plat, you just need to learn how to hit the ball...

[flint hatch]

I CAN DO THAT

[cyan sage]

then you should be at least champ

[flint hatch]

BREH I HIT THE HARDEST POWER SHOTS

[cyan sage]

do they go in

[flint hatch]

YES

[cyan sage]

ok just queue more

[flint hatch]

and lose more...

[cyan sage]

I hit champ 1 playing with drive forwards unbound on an account named tow-mater

[left sonnet]

so plats didnbt understand i could air dribble and shit and every time i hit the ball off the wall they jsut smacked me

[cyan sage]

anyone claiming they can hit the ball and rotate below c1 is just capping

[left sonnet]

lol

lf coach dm me im not ranked but i am normally plat 2 - d2

[lilac whale]

with?

you must connect the underside of your car with the ball at the balls max height or just as it begins to fall

[mellow pivot]

What is the difference in the buttons you press in directional air roll and air roll

Like us directional the one you do without holding air roll bind or while holding it

[lilac whale]

three things needed for a speed flip

1. fast flip a.k.a. make sure you are pressing your jump button twice as fast as possible
2. a forwards diagonal front flip (front left or front right) then cancel in the opposite direction
3. all while holding default air roll to manually finish the rolling motion of the car to land on your four wheels.

your nose of the car should point in the direction you want to speed flip the whole time

[lilac whale]

the difference is:
air roll: is the one you hold and you manipulate your joystick on controller or WASD on keyboard to roll in mid air
air roll left or right: is refered to as directional air roll bc you will continually roll while the button is held in one direction.

if you're asking for tips about when or how to use them better then ask more specific questions

[mellow pivot]

So when you doing a directional air on either left or right you don't need to hold the air roll bind

[lilac whale]

wrong, you must hold whatever button you binded it to if you want to continually roll. With the air roll (default) you can hold it and nothing will happen until you manipulate the joystick

[mellow pivot]

So when directional air rolling you hold down air roll bind but when you not you move your stick around

[lilac whale]

they are two seperate bindings. You're confusing yourself by asking too many questions now. Go into the game and put them on a key or a button and test them out yourself

[mellow pivot]

Im asking witch one you hold air roll and click/hold at the same time to spin

[lilac whale]

I've told you three times now. Re-read the messages I just sent you.

[mellow pivot]

My brain can't process that I need it simpler so I can understand

So when directional air rolling you don't need to hold the air roll bind but only hold air roller left/right and then normally air rolling you hold the air roll button/bind and move your joystick. Or is it the other way around

[dusky fiber]

Yh its like that

[mellow pivot]

@dusky fiber what does reset roll and hold to roll do

[mellow pivot]

@lilac whale can you only have one or the other or both

[lilac whale]

you can have all 3 (default, left, right) binded to buttons but you can only use/press one at a time obviously.

[lilac whale]

i've told you 5 times now what they do and you still havent gone into training like I said and test them out yourself. I will not be answering another question that I've already answered multiple times @mellow pivot

[mellow pivot]

I'm in training rn but I still don't know which ones which

[small spruce]

Bro idk what you dont understand @lilac whale explained it very good 😃

[small spruce]

You know the free air roll ?

[mellow pivot]

Where I hold air roll bind and move joy stick

[small spruce]

Where you can roll left with pressing A (keyboard) and to the right pressing D

U know what i mean?

[mellow pivot]

Is that with out holding air roll bind

[small spruce]

That is a bind called air roll you hold this button and roll left and right however you want

There is another bind for airroll left and a bind for airroll right where you only roll to this side

[mellow pivot]

So when I'm not holding it I should only be able to move my stick up and down but when I am I can move it left or right ks that how it's ment to be

@small spruce

I'm trying to figure out directional air roll

So I've got left trigger as air roll left lb as air roll/drift

[small spruce]

https://youtu.be/zO-J9P3GBjY?si=p1oHgGVq3gz4uI5y&t=14 that explain you the diffrence between free airroll and airroll left/right

[mellow pivot]

Is that correct

[small spruce]

?

W pog example?

anyways hope could help a bit i have to go cya and dont roll to much KEKW

me

dia hardstuck 4 ever i think xD

[mellow pivot]

Ok so holding air roll bind means free roll and not means directional

[small spruce]

peaked C1 last season

nope learn to rotate, play with your teammate (for 2s means dont leave him alone when you have tempo) but dont overcommit that they score with distance shot

wavedashes mech is nice to have

learn fast aerials

speed flips are recommended when your high champ i think

i cant speedfliping aswell

[mellow pivot]

@small spruce also what does hold to roll and reset roll do

[small spruce]

half flip very important do it

[small spruce]

idk i play on keyboard ^^

[mellow pivot]

Well theres roll left and roll right then hold to roll and reset roll

[small spruce]

hmm idk but go freeplay

and look what it does

i never heard reset roll tho maybe its for a fun mode

yea

[dusky fiber]

normal air roll is fine

[small spruce]

i think its maybe for freeplay or private match where you reset your flip maybe

only need free airroll / drift on one bind and set air roll left/ right so what ever button you are confident to

[dusky fiber]

i think he means the ones u can put on at "controls" in the settings, these 2 he described are only for watching replays as far as i kno tho

[small spruce]

that could be true but idont know

[dusky fiber]

the last 2 u descreibed are for watching replays, u dont use them in game

[mellow pivot]

Why doesn't console have air steer bind like pc

[small spruce]

idk but you on controller have it waaaaaaaaaay easier trust me

https://youtu.be/W5PMgTAZIw8?si=9yNp3ZLjPxoH8hIM
here he explains airroll left / right Quickest Way i ever listened

[maiden lark]

can anyone coach me im d2 in 2s. Oce

[mellow pivot]

Is that when directional air rolling

[merry wren]

bro how am i ment to rank up when my teammates are terrible and they miss everything

[small spruce]

Yea u got its for directional airrolling but he is explaining it there better as i could xD

[dusky fiber]

first thing u have to understand is that this wont change, so u have to deal with it, dont just find excuses and try to adapt to the playstyle they have, if u dont and just keep blaming your mate u will be hardstuck at one point

[small spruce]

Adapt to their playstyle

If they miss a lot communicate that they should play for you when you have better accr.
If they chasing to the moon let them chasing relax chill in background wait that they do a mistake and punish it

[merry wren]

bro they miss shots that are right infront of the net and miss simple saves

[small spruce]

Yea happens bro every one miss shots its tilting but this happens

😥

[split jacinth]

Anyone SSL

[dusky fiber]

not quite but what do u need?

[wise smelt]

always blame urself

[dusky fiber]

u sure u can set up? usually the set up is the most difficult one, if u can do that u should already be close to the ball

here a guide: if u are new to air dribbles: most important thing with air dribbles is the set up, if u can do that right u can get good tries, in general take your time with the set up at first. 1. try to get already on the ground in a good line so u dont go crazy left right before touching the ball. 2. try to get the ball as high as possible without it touching the ceiling. 3. u want to toch the ball when it has that up-movement and above the corner, otherwise the ball either goes to straight up the wall or too far away. 4. try to get in a similar speed as the ball. 5. At first, AS SOON as u touch the ball jump, rlly as soon as u touch it. When u focus on all these steps u should be already be very close to the ball after the set up. Then u just need to air roll in a straight position and try out the dribbles. Also try doing it in freeplay. Training packs can be good but there the set up is done for u and u might be able to actually dribble then but cant use it in game as u dont know how to set up

not on rn, can u send ma a vid? or try it like i told u above

[dusky fiber]

your set up is not very good, try and follow these steps, this should already bring u in a good position @cyan sage

[rough hound]

advice on getting out of d1 div 1(i was mid c1 last season)

[proper stratus]

its almost camping net at that rank

so many people ballchase

[rain summit]

how does one reach silver

[proper stratus]

just playing the game

[rough hound]

this is so true

i only play defense for plat 3s now i gotta do this shit in 2s 😭

but if i’m defense they’re gonna have to score against 1v2 and these diamonds aren’t good enough to do that

but once again, it’s d1, anything can happen

[proper stratus]

i mean i think there should be enough opens for you to score that you dont need the 1v2s

but solo q is gonna hurt

[rough hound]

yea i’ll prob just get a tm8 then

[proper stratus]

i dont think id personally have too much of a problem in diamond 1 as i could rely on mechs a bit

but itd be painfull at least

[dusky fiber]

tm8 will help u short term, but try and solo q more it will help u to improve more

[proper stratus]

well with this context he fell from c1 to d1 so i think its for the better

but is solo q that much better for improvement

cus i only play with a duo for 2s

im trying to play more 1s recently but i dont like the thought of playing solo q 2s

[dusky fiber]

i feel like its an overreaction rn, its the start of the new season, its normal for everyone to drop and the elo to be more hard, yh c1 to d1 is a higher drop then usual but the rank will be fine after some time passes

[gleaming patrol]

Solo q is a big roller coaster of emotions

[proper stratus]

yeah thats trye

ii always wait to play or play at the very start of the season

otherwise ranks are messed up

[dusky fiber]

yh might be frustrating some time but def has the most potential

[gleaming patrol]

Absolutely and this is the hardest time to rank up so if games aren’t going to plan don’t stress

[proper stratus]

but is solo q 2s that much better than duo q 2s?

[dusky fiber]

i like to play there, yh i loose more then i win but i face better opponents and can learn more, my rank will regulate later anyway so i dont rlly care much about it

[proper stratus]

hmm didnt think that way before

[gleaming patrol]

Yea but if you have a boy that’s the same rank and you guys flow well then absolutely play with him but if he’s off or you’re solo I would just solo q bc it’s helped me bc I get more reps in and stuff like that

[dusky fiber]

yeah, especially on a lower rank (everything under gc2 i would say), there are usually 2 stereo types, the cahser and the passiv guy, the higher u go the more these stereo types shift, so usually with a mate u have the same playstyle whole time and just get better with this, so your offense might be dia but your defense is gc, if u solo q u always have to switch up your playstyle as every mate is diffrent, thats the way u learn the most in every field, not just specialize in 1 thing

teaming up will help short term rankwise, solo q long term

[gleaming patrol]

Yea

[proper stratus]

but wouldnt 1s be better for improvement than solo q 2s

[gleaming patrol]

Well I was just talking about the 2s in general I wasn’t talking about every game mode

[dusky fiber]

it is mechnicalwise, but rotation is completly diffrent there, in 2s also everyone rotates diffrently so u get used to the diffrent types and its easier

[proper stratus]

well honestly sometimes i find it hard to talk about rotation but i understand

[dusky fiber]

if u want ti improve individually 1s is def good tho, as u get in those 1v1 scenarious in 2s and its good to know what to do then

[proper stratus]

im c1 rn but end of last szn i was mid c1 and i ended c2

and from what others say m8s dont seem that good there

last day i played with another tm8 who is a 1s main and we just won so many games in a row, we got a 12 ws to end of the season lol

[dusky fiber]

its all about perspecive, there wont be a rank where your teammate will be very good, just on a very very high level, trust be blaming teammates also happens in high gc3/low ssl

[dusky fiber]

sounds good lol

[proper stratus]

i mean i think alot of things went well but it was great

but that made me see how bad my 50s and my recoveries are

and how i could never do too well of a 1v2 situation or force a bad situation

[dusky fiber]

what i would recommend u: rotate more around smaller pads, this way u stay more in rotation and can help your teammate out more, play less risky (dont overcommmit in corners for example, try jumping 1 time and focus on landing rather then justv flicking in), try watch out with passes, try and pass in a way that u can rotate quick otherwise no one will be back and your teammate cant fully go for it, try to mix up your palystyle when u face opponents so u are not predictable, play more 1s to improve individually and most important thing always look at yourself and see what u can do better, dont just blame your mate, even if he is not good or cuts u learn how to deal with it then those games will become winable too @proper stratus

[proper stratus]

ok thx

i think a good start is 1s bc it will also help my mentality

i need to take this game less seriously

[violet narwhal]

No 1s is awfull don't I main 1s and it makes u slightly suicidal

[small spruce]

A player who main 1s is slightly better than 2s because he plays much more for ball possesion than 2s do

[violet narwhal]

2s is also not very strategic and there isn't a lot of thought into the game

[small spruce]

Yea 1s can feel pure pain but you get even better and better

Wrong channel

[limber scaffold]

I hate discrod

[small spruce]

I hat your Rechtschreibung kappa

[violet narwhal]

Yes 1s has boosted my mmr like mad in 2s

[small spruce]

And mine aswell KekW

[violet narwhal]

Because it makes you play for possession

And not just for goals

[small spruce]

Correct me if im wrong but 1s & 2s mmr are separate

[violet narwhal]

Yes

I mean as in it has helped me gain more mmr in 2s

[small spruce]

Ahh

[violet narwhal]

As I play much better after all the 1s I play

[violet narwhal]

What's Ur rank?

[small spruce]

Right now d1 close to d2 i lost most of my placements my peak is C1

Without tm8

[violet narwhal]

Okay

[small spruce]

Ur?

[violet narwhal]

Like gc2 in 2s

[small spruce]

Uff

[violet narwhal]

And ssl in 1s

[small spruce]

Nice !

[violet narwhal]

But low d2 is good

Just need to spend a lot of time playing 1s

[small spruce]

Ssl in 1s damn you have to be goated

[violet narwhal]

Nah

It's not that hard once you learn 1s

[small spruce]

For sure u are i mean you are SSL?

[proper stratus]

wdym its not that hard 😭 its top 0.1%

[violet narwhal]

Once u learn 1s it's pretty easy

[cyan sage]

I'm platinium 1 how i go to diamond

[violet narwhal]

Just play the game

[violet narwhal]

At that rank Ur just playing for fun

[proper stratus]

how can you say that

[cyan sage]

Oh okay

[proper stratus]

then how easy is like gc 😭

[small spruce]

@violet narwhal how much playtime u have?

[violet narwhal]

I'm telling u learn 1s and you will be good at all other game modes

Like maybe 6k hrs

[small spruce]

Okay then i have 5k to catch up eZ

But 5k hours on kbm

[violet narwhal]

Lol but tbh spend a lot of time in free play and 1s

Switch to controller

There are not alot of kbm ssls out there

[small spruce]

I know my fav. Is evample hes my king

[spare elm]

How many hours would it averagely take to get GC3 in y'alls opinion?

[small spruce]

Hmm ~3.5k/4k

[spare elm]

Oh wow really?

[violet narwhal]

Yeh like 2.5 to 4k

[small spruce]

Idk but i think so

[violet narwhal]

Is average tbh

[proper stratus]

and what is "learning 1s" cus that mustnt be that easy

like other gamemodes

[small spruce]

Learn perfect ball possesion and u got it

[spare elm]

That's a big gap sir

[violet narwhal]

Play 1s play for possession and get your rank up then play 2s and put everything u learnt in 1s into 2s

[spare elm]

No such thing as perfect ball possesion

[violet narwhal]

Yeh it's different for people as some ppl are ps or Xbox and it's quicker on pc so that's why the gap is like 2k hrs BC of input delay it's harder to learn

You can always improve as they say

[small spruce]

True and pc have workshop maps for better training

[spare elm]

What rank you at currently?

[violet narwhal]

In what gamemode

[spare elm]

1s, 2s and 3s

[small spruce]

Rumble 🤓

[proper stratus]

snowday

[spare elm]

Dropshot 😭

[proper stratus]

cant get much worse than that and snowday

[violet narwhal]

C2 div3 rumble

[proper stratus]

most importantly: casual

[spare elm]

Ion get how people can play extra game modes lmao

[violet narwhal]

Snow day d1 div 2

[proper stratus]

i mean i can get rumble or hoops

[violet narwhal]

Dropshot c3 div 3

[proper stratus]

but snowday and dropshot r so dead

[spare elm]

Hoops is the only one i'd somewhat agree on.

[proper stratus]

dropshots not too bad

[small spruce]

Damn but i guess when u already hit ssl gc in 3s 2s 1s somewhen starts to Grind rumble ranked kekw

[violet narwhal]

Idk that

[spare elm]

Yea

[violet narwhal]

1205 is like c2

[spare elm]

It was the last 2 weeks before season ended

[violet narwhal]

1094 is like c1

[spare elm]

So i had jut came back

[violet narwhal]

That's good tbh

[small spruce]

Yep c1 starts at 1075

[violet narwhal]

Ye I'm good w mmr

[spare elm]

I'll probably hit 1800 if not higher this season as i was playing against alot of 1800s since i was queueing late night. Very good practise though.

[violet narwhal]

Mines like 2140

[proper stratus]

goated

[violet narwhal]

Same

My 1s is always higher than 2s

[small spruce]

@violet narwhal Studied the Skill Rating Distribution

[spare elm]

How come you're lower ranked now then?

[proper stratus]

rank reset?

[violet narwhal]

Rank reset and tbh that was like ssn 9

[proper stratus]

im confused sorry for that answer

[violet narwhal]

Yup Ik it all

[spare elm]

Of course i know about the rank reset but i doubt he meant he's already Ssl in 1s in the message above lol

[small spruce]

Rank reset in higher elo hits different no? -300mmr or ?

[violet narwhal]

I'm already ssl in 1s

1360 mmr

[spare elm]

Everyhing above gc2 will all get reset down to 1550

[small spruce]

Ahhh

[spare elm]

Fair play

[violet narwhal]

I grind it like mad tbh

[small spruce]

Iconic its time to go for the freestyle to ssl content

[spare elm]

I'm tryna play more 1s but i'm really bad at it 😭

[violet narwhal]

I can't freestyle

[spare elm]

Bro is all brain, less mechs 😭

[proper stratus]

im trying to play more 1s but im trash at the game and i get tilted super fast 😭

[violet narwhal]

My mechs are decent but ssl is just ground plays

[rough hound]

no? c2 starts at 1075

well for 2s

[violet narwhal]

No c1 is 1075

[proper stratus]

c1 starts at 1075 c2 1180 (1194 to rank up 1180 to rank down)

[violet narwhal]

Ye

[rough hound]

weird

[violet narwhal]

Mmr is so weird tbh

[rough hound]

cause rl shows i’m 1070 mmr at best when i was one game off from c2

[violet narwhal]

I just use the mmr overlay

[rough hound]

rl tracker

[spare elm]

I wouldn't change it tbf

[proper stratus]

well it was 10 mmr below deranking

[violet narwhal]

U gain anything from 9 mmr to 18 mmr a game

[proper stratus]

but u wouldnt rank up

[violet narwhal]

Lower the rank the more mmr gained

[spare elm]

If you're on a very high wins treak you gain alot more mmr

[small spruce]

Yea then u have to learn it 😺 nah but im sure you can double reset or musty double tap

[violet narwhal]

Ye or if your lower rank

Ye but freestyle is a whole different game tbh

[small spruce]

True

[spare elm]

Iconic you got any good 1s tips?

[small spruce]

Ball possesion is key is biggest tip no? 😃

[violet narwhal]

I have one which I use alot and it's to never be the first one to challenge always make the opponent throw away the ball

[proper stratus]

well its well known and it doesnt actually help with how to keep possession

[spare elm]

That's common sense though

[proper stratus]

what 😭

y'all playing a diff game i swear

[violet narwhal]

Well yes but I mean as in never go for 50s make the opponent force the 50

[spare elm]

Yea i get you

[violet narwhal]

Play off the opponents mistakes don't try and create opportunities to score wait for them

[small spruce]

You keep it with soft touches instead of playing ping pong if u know what i mean

[violet narwhal]

And don't double jump on defence always hold your flip

[spare elm]

Tbf just keep the ball to yourself as much as possible. Try not to panic and boom it away.

[spare elm]

This is good. That's an issue i had before, occasionally still do.

[small spruce]

Exactly

[proper stratus]

yes but still

[spare elm]

Rotate back post

[violet narwhal]

Or just don't be stupid Use Ur brain because Ur opponent won't

[small spruce]

I instantly have these guys in my mind whos perma challenging in evample videos

[proper stratus]

like i can say possession is getting the ball to always be faster for you to reach than for ur opponent to reach but in practice it wont really help knowing this if you cant get the right touches

[spare elm]

1s teaches you to ge the correct touches

[proper stratus]

now just how do i not get tilted 😭

[violet narwhal]

Break stuff

Jk

[spare elm]

Don't care about your rank. Play to improve.

[proper stratus]

i dont have anything left to break

[violet narwhal]

That's problem number 1 don't ever break stuff cos u lose

[proper stratus]

i know and thats the mentality i try to have in 1s is to improve but i get tilted

[proper stratus]

it was a joke but yeah its a good thing to not break stuff

[small spruce]

u have 4 or 5 zones at ur car 1 is hard touch 5 is soft 1 front edge 2 side of the car 3 cars front 4 i dont know it right now 5 the wheels

[spare elm]

I mean most people get tilted bcause they are worried about losing games and your rank (status). Just don't worry about it and especially turn chat off if you get tilted easily.

[proper stratus]

i get tilted off of "lucky" plays i feel

like i know its not lucky but like sometimes i get a bit of latency and i dont see the touch

and things like that get me super tilted

[spare elm]

Hear me out though. "Luck" Doesn't happen as often as you think. Most of the time it's you being in a bad position and the opponent punishing you for it.

[proper stratus]

i know its not luck

but i still get tilted af 😭

[spare elm]

Yea you gotto keep a good mental fr

[violet narwhal]

And don't be stupid

[small spruce]

Chat : What a save ! What a save ! What a save ! What a save ! KEKW

[woven shard]

i would say luck is more on your tm8 and how good your oppents are tbh nothing that happens while your playing just whoyour matching against

bc thats smth you cant control

[spare elm]

I mean if your teammate is bad that's no fun, but if you can't do something with the way you play then you're just gonna lose either way.

[violet narwhal]

What a save!
What a save!
What a save!

[spare elm]

Let's say you're in c2. Everyone in your rank will be around the same level of skill unless an occasional smurf lurks around the corner.

[violet narwhal]

Me

[spare elm]

😭

[woven shard]

no not necessarily bc sm1 could be peaking and generally ppl are inconsistent even up to gc

[violet narwhal]

I poop on unsuspecting victims

[small spruce]

you guys know these guys you Queue for 2s get a lobby joins
3....
2....
1....
GO! ....tm8 is afk

[proper stratus]

as a (peak) c2 i disagree , so many ppl just play so badly one game as if they were plat 3

[woven shard]

as well as having a bad too

[spare elm]

A peaking c2 wouldn't beat a peaking gc1.

[proper stratus]

then they hit you with a triple flip reset musty

[violet narwhal]

Yes then spam my bad or sorry after 3 mins of being afk

[woven shard]

im not saying that

[small spruce]

yea

[proper stratus]

and others are hardstuck cus of playstyle and they absolutely beat you given the right tm9

[woven shard]

im saying it even happens up to gc the inconsistence

[small spruce]

but these guys are since Season start even more and more

[spare elm]

There is inconsistency in all ranks. It's just that it happens way less in the higher ranks.

[violet narwhal]

It doesn't

[woven shard]

yh but its still a factor

[violet narwhal]

There are some ssls that are like plat 2s

[spare elm]

Are you currently hardstuck though or are you still climbing?

[proper stratus]

im not talking about me lol

[spare elm]

But i am lmao

[small spruce]

XD

[proper stratus]

the 25th of august i was c1 div 1/2 and the next week i was c1 div 3/4 and the day before season ended i played with another tm8 and got c2

so id say im climbing

[woven shard]

noice

[rough hound]

is my teammate leaving me in a 2v1 lucky for the opponent or unlucky for me

[spare elm]

Yea that's good. So i mean if you struggle solo queuing i'd say try to find a teammate around your skill level and then work your way up together.

[proper stratus]

yeah i duo q with the same guy since i was diamond

[spare elm]

Smart, smart.

[proper stratus]

but to get c2 i played with a guy who was a 1s main and so he had a bad playstyle for solo q but with me it worked out

[proper stratus]

i mean its just knowing him irl lol

it helps me take the game less seriously and have more fun

[rose lagoon]

bro the #looking-for-group isnt working for me... wbu guys?

[violet narwhal]

Meaning you also have a bad playstyle

[proper stratus]

id like to think that im not too bad but its probably true

[woven shard]

thats the most important thing imo aswell as to improve

[violet narwhal]

Do /looking for group

[rose lagoon]

cant even see messages

[spare elm]

This ^

[rose lagoon]

sais 100 messages deleted

blocked*

[wet kiln]

have you blocked the bot?

[violet narwhal]

Tbh if he has a bad playstyle but it worked for u then you also do

[woven shard]

not necessarily

[violet narwhal]

Yes

If he has a bad playstyle and it worked out then yes you both have bad 2s playstyles

[small spruce]

@violet narwhal your camera settings?

[proper stratus]

i mean hes a 1s main and he told me that normally in 2s his tm8s dont let him have time on the ball but i let him

idk how to see how good or bad my playstyle is

or what that means but i wanted to say that he was lower than he shouldve been and as i dont think it necessarily his tm8s fault i said playstyle

[rose lagoon]

oh

[proper stratus]

i might be right or wrong but idk

[rose lagoon]

ty

[woven shard]

pruuh did you just play more passive or smth

[violet narwhal]

Wait I took a pic for my cousin let me find it

I'll send in dms

[small spruce]

k

[proper stratus]

i dont even know how i play

[woven shard]

lol

[proper stratus]

but i do tend to be more passive / hesitant
